Any Asian mill buyers out there... What's the best way to remove Cosmoline (the packing grease the machine comes in) from my new mill? I've heard several methods, I'm still not sure which one is the best.
My favorite so far is a hand steam-cleaner. Cosmoline melts at ~120F, so it basically just drips off. Hands down the best method for the environment.
This supposedly get "most" of the stuff off, but it might leave a film. Afterwards, what solvent should I use to get the rest? The gun/rifle guys say to use mineral spirits, but won't that take off the paint?
Any quick replies are welcome... I'm going to start on this this afternoon if I have an answer by then
